Gourmet Meal at Home
We have seen some outstanding meals prepared on cruise ships lately, but this is one made right here at home.
Catherine prepared a wonderful filet mignon dinner and Kjell made the steak sauce.
The steaks were grilled to rare perfection. The spinach salad made the whole thing healthy! This is Kjell's version of hollandaise sauce. It was soooo good! Bacon for the potatoes, of course.And, perfectly baked potatoes.We didn't need any dessert. If we had had dessert, we wouldn't have been able to eat it!
Thank you, family! This was great!
Love you all!

Loaded Baked Potato ala Catherine
Good morning,
This was a meal in itself.
Catherine made loaded baked potatoes. This is just HALF of a potato and was nearly more than I could eat.
Yum!
What a great Fall meal.
All the best,
Lois

Baked Cod Soup ala Kjell
Instead of making this soup in a soup pot, Kjell makes this in a casserole dish. The cod bakes perfectly and all the flavors blend.
It's a thick soup and oooooooh, so good!Enjoy!

Beautiful Moon
The moon was so beautiful when we took the pups out for last call recently.
We had somehow missed it in the news, but later that night we had an eclipse of the moon. Catherine was still at her office and texted asking if Dad was outside gett6ing pictures, but we were already in bed.There were many images of the eclipse on line the next morning.
So pretty!
All the best,
Lois
